We know that he weeds gardens for 15 hours, and mows lawns for x hours.

If he wants to earn $252 per month, we can express the following

9\cdot15+9x\ge252

Now, we solve for x

\begin{gathered} 135+9x\ge252 \\ 9x\ge252-135 \\ 9x\ge117 \\ x\ge\frac{117}{9} \\ x\ge13 \end{gathered}<h2>Hence, he has to mow lawns for 13 hours to earn at least $252.</h2>

Describe a way to check the correctness of a subtraction answer.
Tamiku [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Well in general, we can represent subtraction as: x-y=z

"z" represents the difference, and it really just represents x with y taken away. So if we were to "give back" this y value, we should get "x".

This means that: z+y=x

So one way to check, is adding the value that's being subtracted (y value) and the difference (z value), this should get you the value that is being subtracted from (x value). If you don't get the original value that's being subtracted from (x-value) then you know the answer you got is wrong.

Graph the line with slope 3/2 and y-intercept 3. ​
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The steepness of any incline can be measured as the ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change. For example, a  5 % incline can be written as  5100 , which means that for every  100  feet forward, the height increases  5  feet.Figure  4.4.1 In mathematics incline of a line the slope and use the letter  m  to denote it. The vertical change is called the rise and the horizontal change is called the run.Slopem=vertical changehorizontal change=riserun(4.4.1)The rise and the run can be positive or negative. A positive rise corresponds to a vertical change up and a negative rise corresponds to a vertical change down. A positive run denotes a horizontal change to the right and a negative run corresponds to a horizontal change to the left. Given the graph, we can calculate the slope by determining the vertical and horizontal changes between any two points.Example  4.4.1 Figure  4.4.2 From the given points on the graph, count  3  units down and  4  units right.m=riserun=−3units4units=−34 the Answer is.m=−34 .

Sloan [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $7.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p, d, q represent the numbers of pennies, dimes, and quarters in the collection, respectively.

  p + d + q = 45 . . . . . . . . there are 45 coins in the collection

  2p +5 = q . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 more than twice the number of pennies

  p + 4 = d . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 more than the number of pennies

Substituting the last two equations into the first gives ...

  p +(p +4) +(2p +5) = 45

  4p = 36 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9

  p = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

  d = 9 +4 = 13

  q = 2(9) +5 = 23

The value of the collection is ...

  23(0.25) +13(0.10) +9(0.01) = 5.75 +1.30 +0.09 = 7.14

The coin collection is worth $7.14.
